A monochromatic color scheme consists of different values of one color.

Also called harmonious colors, analagous color schemes are colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel. Some examples are green, light green, and yellow or red, orange and yellow.

Complementary colors are colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel, such as blue and orange, red and green, purple and yellow. These colors, when used side-by-side, make each other appear brighter. When they are mixed, they neutralize each other.

A split-complementary color scheme is a color scheme that includes a main color and the two colors on each side of its complementary (opposite) color on the color wheel.

A triadic color scheme consists of three colors, such as the basic triad of red, yellow and blue primaries.

Tetradic color scheme: Tetrads are any four colors with a logical relationship on the color wheel, such as double complements.1
